Just wondering what all you have to change if you put a big block into a small block B-Body.
 
Tranny and engine and depending if your goin from 904 to 747, shortening drive shaft which a rear end swap may require anyway.
Motor mounts or conversion mounts (you didnt provide the year bbody)
Bigger rad, possibly bigger torsion bars, bigger rear end (you didnt mention engine sizes, stock or anything about what your planning to do other than SB to BB)
drum to disk conversion (you didnt say what you have now)

Others may have more to add
 
Looking at a stone stock 68 Coronet with a 318 and 904 that I'm thinking about buying. I know a guy who has a 69 440 and 727 that he wants to sell.
Just wondering what I would be getting into.
 
hoses, maybe acc.drives depending on if ac equiped, odds and ends but that should cover the big stuff.
